Brunch burger
Scott P.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a nice spot for brunch while on an overnight trip to Annapolis, and Google led us here. Location is amazing. Gorgeous views of the water and boats in the marina. Outdoor tables right next to the boats. We even got to see a giant boat being moved that went right past our table. Ordered our food inside at the counter, and they brought it out to us. Surprisingly little to no seafood on the menu given its proximity to the water. My girlfriend got the Hippy Hash Skillet with marble rye toast, and I got the brunch burger with house chips. She loved her rye toast but said everything else was just ok, and I loved the chips, but I was very underwhelmed by the burger. I asked for it medium but there wasn't a trace of pink on the inside. In addition, while writing this review I looked over their menu again and realized my burger was supposed to come with roasted garlic aioli and maple bourbon bacon jam, but came with neither. This would have been an easy fix at the time but I just didn't remember these two ingredients were supposed to be part of it. So all I got was a dry burger with a hash brown and a fried egg with the yolk cooked through. Not a bad place to eat but as there are so many options in the area, not sure if we would return on our next trip to Annapolis.

A little burnt
Riley H.

Came here for the first time for Sunday brunch. Very crowded, but that's expected (and a good sign!). There was live music outside by the water. You order at the counter and then find a seat. There was a relatively long wait for food. The food was good - pancakes were yummy and the hippy hash skillet was decent too. My only complaint is the skillet was rather burnt. It would've been great if the skillet wasn't burnt. Would come back though!

View of the marina. Tables are available outside, but it was rainy today!

We tried this place because it had so many great reviews. We weren't disappointed by the food...it was delicious, but the ambiance was a bit funky! I had the BBK Sandwich and it was delicious. My husband had the Hippy Hash and loved it too. The restaurant is right at the marina, so it's fun to see the boats. The place was packed when we went there and only the sofa with TV trays were available. Unusual, but whatever!

Philly Cheesesteak
Kylie D.

This is a casual diner serving all-day lunch and breakfast. Came here on a Friday around 12:30. Service was fast and friendly. There were a few tables available outside and inside. I got the oyster mushroom po-boy and my partner got the Philly cheesesteak. I'd give them 8/10. Pretty good. I liked how there were lots of vegetarian/vegan options. I'd come back!

Southern Chicken Biscuit
Austin G.

In the charming neighborhood of Eastport along the water is an equally charming cafe that serves breakfast all day. The menu is big with lots of comfort foods like pancakes, but I ordered the Southern Chicken Biscuit and I wasn't mad about it. On a busy Sunday around 11:30am, it took ten minutes for the food to come, but when it did, I was happy. A fried chicken breast comes on a warm biscuit with bacon, cheese, fried egg, and sriracha honey. Don't worry. It's not spicy. In fact, I wanted an extra side of the hot honey. The sandwich was very good and filling! The space itself is small, but next door is another room with more tables, restrooms, water, etc. There are a few tables outside along the water too.

Really cute little dockside eatery in a cozy space with outdoor seating. I was in Annapolis just for fun and wanted to try a local spot for lunch. It was hard to tell online if there was indoor seating--there is a bar with stools and a couple tables. You order at the counter and your food is brought out to you. The menu was interesting, there were vegetarian/vegan options and all day breakfast. I got the black bean with butternut squash grain bowl. It was a bit underwhelming. I didn't like that the quinoa was served cold, then topped with some hot ingredients. It didn't taste very good with cold quinoa. If it had been warmed up it would have tasted a lot better. Nothing was really seasoned and the dish relied heavily on the dressing for flavor. I kept looking over at the guy next to me who ordered the chicken biscuit sandwich (which looked amazing), yearning for some flavor. I doused the whole thing in Cholula I found on the table in desperation. I did enjoy the molasses cookie I got. It was nice eating by the window at the bar seating. There's little planters hanging which really adds to the vibe. Cute spot, nice little lunch place.

Mixed reviews for our table, but I would return for their lunch sandwiches. Skip breakfast items, especially the biscuit. One exemption was rhe buttermilk pancake, that was tasty. The ITEM to get was the toasted sandwich and the taste of chicken and avocado was perfection. Some fyi's would be that they give tou a cup for water to be filled by fountain type device outside. Drinks are limited to tea and everything else pretty much bottled. Service was efficiently speedy. Breakfast a 2 lunch food a 5 so meeting in the middle ish.

Monster blueberry scone--so yummy!
Elaine F.

Annapolis has a number of vibrant local gathering spots, but Bread and Butter Kitchen is at the top of the list. They have added to the original space so they have multiple seating options: Counter stools, cozy tables, and even a couch. There is a conference room space that can be booked for meetings, and it is lovely--so nicely decorated and fully equipped. My senior women's group met there this morning for a coffee gathering. Today was a rainy morning, so the marina waterside tables were not in use. But we had such a nice, cozy gathering in "The Hub." The coffee bar has multiple coffee offerings, and a number of flavoring syrups. And the scones are to die for! I had a blueberry scone that was pure heaven. The owner goes out of her way to greet guests, and the whole staff is consistently friendly. No wonder the line is often out the door. On weekends, they often have musicians playing outside. It is a community-centered, warm, and inclusive establishment with a very positive vibe. They also do catering. I visited another establishment up in Crownsville that had food items from B&BK.

Window seating
Alex J.

I really enjoyed our visit here! We came for the 4th of July for lunch. It was very busy but they kept the line moving quickly. Food only took 15 minutes to come out! Seating is limited but we were able to grab some at seating by the window. The chicken biscuit here was by far the best part of the meal! It's a honey sriracha and was perfectly seasoned/garnished. The kale salad was light and refreshing (I added some pepper to give it some more spice). It's a casual family friendly spot, and had lots of plants and large windows to keep it airy! Would recommend if you're in Eastport

Sarah K. P.

Came by while at the naval academy, parking seems to be super congested (but we got super lucky with a spot right out front). This place is super cute and the food was tasty, the fries were a miss, both the portion and flavor...the view of the water was nice. It did rain a bit but we stayed outside and it cleared up. Food came out pretty quickly and the service was great

Vegan Banh Mi, Cheese Curds, etc
Jen J.

I have admittedly struggled to locate vegetarian meals in Annapolis (honestly, across the DMV) that are not lifeless salads given the understandable obsession with all things seafood. Bread and Butter kitchen was a fantastic find to address my meatless needs. There were so many options for meat avoiders and meat lovers, with unique finds like the Banh Mi made with oyster mushrooms - it rocked and kinda stayed on water theme (oyster?! Even if the mushroom variety??) Right next to the water, you can also eat your meal in a picturesque setting, perfect for the 'gram (or the yelp). Highly recommend and will be back!

Diandra G.

Love this cute little spot. Food was great. I had the southwest chicken wrap. There's extra seating next door. I had hoped to dine outdoors but it was too hot to enjoy the view from outside. Will definitely return.

However, the chicken was breast meat and sliced thin, which made it come across as dry. I did tell the server I liked it and didn't go into much detail since she seemed very busy and I didn't want to add stress in the moment. Still, it's not something I would personally order again. The waffle situation was more frustrating. I initially received cornmeal waffles, but I had told my server ahead of time that I strongly avoid cornmeal. She said she would substitute them, so I was surprised when the plate came out with the original cornmeal waffles. I didn't realize at first and ended up taking a bite before noticing. I let the server know and she had the kitchen remake it. The replacement Belgian waffles were overcooked and dense, so they didn't really improve the experience. The butter though was genuinely delicious, just very rich and more of a holiday-style flavor than something I'd personally crave in warmer weather. I also had a basic cup of coffee made with Rise Up Coffee Roasters, which was $4.50. That felt overpriced for what it was. I could have walked right across the street and had a specialty coffee from the source for very little extra cost, which honestly would have been the better choice. Overall, the experience had some clear issues, especially with the waffle mix-up and consistency, but it wasn't completely disappointing. I just don't think I would personally order the same meal again.

That restlessness works in its favor. The space is compact, almost disarming at first. Then it settles around you. There is a quiet intimacy to the room, the kind that feels less designed and more lived in. It leans closer to a welcoming home than a polished dining room, without losing its sense of purpose. The food carries that same balance. Thoughtful, seasonal, and just unpredictable enough to keep you paying attention. Cocktails follow suit, measured and deliberate, never an afterthought. For Annapolis, where good options are not exactly rare, this place still manages to separate itself. It belongs firmly in the top tier of the city's dining scene, and it earns that position every time it changes the menu and starts over again.

We did also order the Coconut Panna Cotta for dessert. The raspberry was pretty prominent here and wasn't as custard like as expected, just a little too soft but the flavor otherwise wasn't bad.

We were basically shoulder to shoulder with the barrier between our food. More food. Given their penchant for super sized foods, I thought the default sandwich would be bigger. It wasn't bad but it was kind of skimpy. And it didn't come with anything. I got the jumbo fries and my nephew and I finished them with no trouble. More flavor. Yeah, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't great! A Reuben should be really powerful with all the different flavors but this turkey Reuben was a bit muted. I joked that I would try to challenge menu but I would need to taste the food first to make sure I liked it. I think I could have met the challenge but I don't think I would have enjoyed it.

The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and clearly very knowledgeable about both the food and whiskey selection. You can tell they genuinely enjoy what they do, and their recommendations made the experience even better. The seafood mac & cheese was unreal -- pure cheesy, gooey goodness packed with flavor and perfectly cooked seafood. Comfort food at its absolute best. We also tried the WhistlePig Old Fashioned with bacon, and it was hands down one of the best cocktails I've had in a long time. Rich, smoky, smooth, and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. What really sets Dry 85 apart is the whiskey and cocktail selection. The variety is seriously impressive, whether you're a casual bourbon fan or a full whiskey enthusiast. One of the bartenders recommended trying a bourbon flight, and it ended up being one of the highlights of the night. They took the time to explain the differences between pours and made the experience feel approachable and fun instead of intimidating. The atmosphere has a great upscale-but-relaxed vibe that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy yourself. Between the amazing drinks, incredible food, and top-tier service, this place completely exceeded expectations. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Annapolis.

The menu is a fantastic mix of options and the food is outstanding.

All were delicious, but special shout out to the curried chicken salad and the kale slaw. Perfect! (/chef kiss) We enjoyed Eastport Kitchen so much - we went back the next day. This time we ordered the shrimp sandwich (the standard version, not the "bang bang" special), Maryland crab soup, a salmon salad and more kale slaw. We were not disappointed at all. The shrimp sandwich was the star this day, and while the Maryland crab soup was good, it paled a bit compared to the other dishes. When the menu choices are all good, inevitably something doesn't shine quite as brightly. We will definitely be back. So many more items to try. Maybe even tomorrow....
